I Am The Luna

Chapter 55

A Strong Woman

SEBASTIAN. I watch her as she sits there; her plunging neckline enticing me but the concern and worry I feel for her outweigh my desires – wanting to take away all her worries. Those men were there to make an example of me, but I turned out far stronger than they anticipated. Idiots.

But I also can’t deny that they managed to do damage. My entire body is in a lot of pain, and I can barely sit up. They wanted me dead, and I’m certain they left me to bleed to death…

I don’t know how I made it, but I’m glad I did. “We will handle this, don’t worry,” I say quietly. She looks down, her heart pumping fast. She’s trying to control her emotions and feelings just like she always used to, but she’s failing.

That’s why she is in here… I remember in the past when she had a lot going on, she would come to me if I was working late. She wouldn’t bother me. She’d simply come and curl up beside me as I worked.

She never demanded attention, never wanted to bother me, but I wish she did… I took advantage of her silence and strength. I never thought to push her and make her tell me, thinking if it was important, she’d tell me herself. Instead, I would simply comfort her, but I lacked in many ways…

I never tried to ease her burden, but I won’t make that mistake again, not anymore… it was our silence and miscommunication that made matters worse.

“You don’t need to hide what you feel from me, Little Fox,” I say quietly, reaching for her. I grit my teeth as pain shoots up my arm and my neck, but I manage to touch her chin, my body screaming in pain that I refuse to succumb to, as I take hold of it gently.

I’m unable to force her to look at me. I can barely keep upright, but she looks up anyway. Her gorgeous amethyst eyes are full of so many emotions and she’s struggling with them.

She grips my wrist providing some relief and cradles my hand to her chest. I try not to focus on the way my knuckles lightly graze her breast. My hand is bandaged too, I had grabbed one of the blades in them…
